Bernardo Silva charged with misconduct by FA

Has anyone seen the Richard Pryor stand up where he depicts black men as cool and unflustered yet white men in the same situation go to pieces? Is that racism or good humour?
Also we often hear complaints about the token black man in a Hollywood film but then we get shows like the Cosby show where there are no white men in sight. Not really a true representation of American life.
Then we have the N word. I’ve known the N word to be acceptable between black men and I’ve known black lads who allow white guys to use the word but only if they’re a good mate.
I’m probably getting old (or as some patronising twats on here have said not educated enough ) but it’s all a bit confusing, I’m not saying there aren’t examples of clear cut racism but I don't think this is one.
 
Reply to my complaint about Sky's post match stage managed interviews


Hi George

Thank you for getting in touch and providing your views. We appreciate all feedback and comments from our viewers at Sky.

Sky Sports provided the views of Manchester City through interviews with Pep Guardiola and Raheem Sterling, then the panel including Victor Anichebe gave their personal opinions on the matter.

Kelly Cates provided the questions and guided the debate on a sensitive issue, one that Victor feels strongly about as he made clear at the start of the discussion.
It was a balanced debate but like all subjects discussed the guests are there to give their opinion, and then explain it for the benefit of the viewers.

The context of describing conversations between Victor and his ‘white’ friends was to explain why, in his view, there is a difference between private jokes and sharing them on a social platform that millions of people can see.

Thank you for your views and sharing them with us, but we stand by the broadcast and specifically the balanced coverage of this specific talking point.

Kind regards

Your TV treatment of Man City staff after tonight’s game was blatantly racist and utterly reprehensible.
A continuous hatchet job lining up smear after smear to follow interviews given in good faith.
Who do you think you are? I will take my complaint about this disgusting witchhunt to both the CRE and OfCom










 
By the way Portugal seems to have different ideas when it comes to racism or racial awareness so naturally a Portuguese club would defend it.

It was a balanced debate - no it fucking wasn’t.

Word for word the same as mine but they did not address Victor’s “Angry Little Irishman” racist comment or Carragher’s trousers comment to Lescott. So escalated my complaint.
 
More on Bernardo Silva. A very confused story. It's a distraction from racism, and then at the same time degrading.

Communciation such as this can be designed to be degrading but this was not.

That's a superb piece by Aluko and I hope the naysayers read it and understand another Black person's view on it (which is the SAME as mine) and hopefully I won't have to say another word on the issue!!
